cant see why this seme like a bad idea to some of you. there has been changesin the game,like removal of healing skill,and if youpicked the experimentation tree that to my knowledge dont work for jedi that sucks big time...those who picked bad/wrong/or simply didnt know what the different branches did, should be alowed to change it, and as a full temp jedi that is a hard thing to do ( if only we could trade in jedi exp for fs exp )...I can hardly understand why this is a problem to some of you,do you thinkthat if a guy changes his experimentation branch into the luck branch its going to ruin the game or are you afraid that if he changes his ranged speed into melee speed he will outdamage you in pvp?


not that i think they will ever do this but if they did,great for those in need of it, and to those of you who dont... no oneis going to force you to respec...

I am also a pre 9 Jedi that had to choose my skills all at once when the Jedi revamp went live. Many of the skills like Melee acc/spd were said to be broken at that time, also Ranged spd/acc had no effect on Powers back then.

I am opposed to a respec because I just think it has already been over done, and no we do not have to drop 3 rows of Jedi skills to retrain our FS skills. You bank enough FS xp to train an entire line of FS skills, drop enough Jedi skills to gain 4 skill points, train the new row of FS skills you want, then drop the row of FS skills you no longer want.

I do think that killing 6,500 bols with a no cert weapon is kind of a silly way for us to have to regrind each line of FS skills. Especially with the "must have a Saber eqiuped" in order to use Jedi specials change coming. I would love to have the ability to convert Jedi xp to FS xp. The exchange rate could be 10:1 and I would still be happy.

Just enable a "stop" feature, like all the other professions have, that would prevent players from dropping below the 6 FS rows required to be a Jedi when changing their rows.

Thank you for your support




Its no longer 1:1 ratio

I waited a few cycles of the village to get the fs skills I wanted. Im not a subsriber to "well I went through this...so you have to goes through that...". Not my style. But I don't see a real need for a respec in fs skills. Why should someone who killed and rez'd their guildie's over by paemos get the same advantages I go from going out into the field and killing rancors and such?


But if it happened, I'm not gonna hate on yall. But I have to say /disagree.

NO to respec. Even I wish I had taken the defense lines instead of the ranged lines, but when I went FS "back in the day" I had no plans of becoming a Jedi as a die-hard rifleman. However i should not get a free switch to the defense lines because I did not waste two lines I had already filled when I did decide to become a Jedi. (I also have persuasion and vehicle control which I chose becuase I thought they would be cool)


Yes to make persuasion do something meaningful (idk, maybe no snare on cloak! :smileyvery-happy


Yes to make vehicle control do more than make you accelerate and stop faster (idk, maybe 10% faster)


Yes to make Jedi XP convert at the village at a rate of around 5:1 or better


Yes to increasing Jedi XP cap to 10 million


Sure why not to making the master FS boxes do something (As a combat prowess master, I would love to seemaybe another 5 points to each skill, you would have to train it of course, and it would cost a skill point though) It would be something to kill off those last remaining skill points for the 224/225ish skill point temps that take a hit in regen and force pool for no double mastery.


Andyou betto fixing all the other borked skills like luck (increase chances of getting better loot instead of creds), healing (reduce heal timer by.25 secondfor each boxsomething), crafting (make it really a good trade off for the other skillsby really boostingones ability to craft lightsabers).


My 2 credits.

Despite the fact investigation xp is 10 times harder to get than FS XP and, they nerfed it to 5-1.

If Jedi xp was tradable it could be accomplished.


Yes you may have to drop a jedi box or 2 to have to regrind, but you would be able to do it

All of you "haters" out there are totally missing the point:


1) I am not against having to grind out the FS skills, but I AM against having to dropskills justto do it.


2) I thought a 1 time FS tree only respec would be a decent idea because it could be clean, but it seems like I am in the minority on that


3) Sure make ALL the skills do something beneficial, but even more to the point...for all the newbie grinding jedi...What if they did fix the FS skills that were broken and give them more beneficial powers then what you had today...wouldn't you want a means to gain the appropriate FS XP without having to drop your jedi skills to get it?


4) If Jedi is "just another combat professions" and no other profession has to drop its skills to earn FS xp, why does a jedi? Meaning, Why is the jedi the only combat profession that does not havexp to FSxp conversion capability?

Petitions are not worth it, and I DONT agree with this idea





2 or 3 months ago I would have agreed with you on this. In fact a couple of months ago I disagreed with a poster that wanted to be able to convert Jedi xp to switch FS trees. Like a lot of people, I attained my FS trees before the CU. What I was initially unaware of (post-CU) was that the CU changed what those boxes were good for. Compound this with the fact that we're now learning that things like 'ranged defense' only work if you have a ranged weapon equipped and the point becomes even more obvious (this also leaves me scratching my head about ranged defense in the defender tree). By pulling the rug out from underneath us with the CU, we should be able to get respec on only the FS trees to adjust to the changes that the CU brought, with regard to these trees. Just my two cents.
